HelpRe: Is any of these combos usable?
in reply to a message by Lulucky
Christopher, Nicholas and Joshua are all in the US top 100. Plenty of people are still using these names. They are definitely falling in popularity, but there are lots of babies with these names. All three are fairly classic as well, with long histories of use. Grant is probably the most obviously dated of them all, if you are worried at all about that. But because it's the most dated, it's also the most "fresh" option. A baby Grant will probably be the only one in his class.
None of these names are on the cutting edge of fashion, they all have a gently dated feel to them, but none of them would be difficult for a kid to wear.
James Grant is perfectly fine. I'd even say that having choppy one-syllable names for boys is a kind of English language tradition. Think of John Wayne. James Dean. Glenn Ford. Names like this don't feel strange, they feel strong and iconic. Also remember that middle names really don't matter in the grand scheme of things. Most people won't know or care about someone's middle name.
All of these names are perfectly fine and I don't think you need to worry so much about it. Especially not forum opinions!
